phase 2a study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ph100 tablet in t2dm patients with recent cardiovascular

Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Circulatory Complciation

Summary: this is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-design, 12-week, therapeutic exploratory, phase iia study which will patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and recent cardiovascular complications.

after a screening, 114 patients will be stratified randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to the 3 arms (ph100 800mg/day, ph100 1600mg/day, placebo) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ph100. subjects will visit the centers on week 4, 8 and 12 during the entire 12-week treatment period.
